Hendrick wins appealBy Mike Mulhern The issue: Kyle Busch’s engine-intake manifold for the Busch race at Kansas City three weeks ago. NASCAR didn’t like the way it looked, insisted that the team had “unapproved intake-manifold modifications to the plenum area,” and fined crew chief Michael Bumgarner $10,000. Hendrick insisted that the particular manifold had already passed several other NASCAR inspections without question. The team noted that the intake-manifold rules were rather vague but pointed out the manifold did meet NASCAR’s current measuring gauges. The appeals committee - Richard Gore, David Hall and standing chairman George Silbermann - unanimously rescinded the penalty. Hendrick said: “Obviously we’re pleased with the decision. We appreciate the commission giving us the opportunity to present the facts and send a clear message about our performance at Kansas. “The team prepared a race-winning car that met every rule in the book. It’s important that our fans, our sponsors and our competitors know that’s the case.” Bookmarkz |
